Pandemic Posts - June 2020 part duex

 Hello again!

I felt that June needed two posts, I felt like the Black Lives Matter deserved its own personal space. So, in between crying and holding space in June, I did other things as well! 

There were celebrations:

Erin's birthday! With a lovely post dedicated to her from Rachel. 

Liz and Mark's virtual wedding!



 

There was more of exploring the neighborhood:

Lovely little church

Technically this was not in my neighborhood, but it was a really cool market I got to go to. 

Unfinished. 

Finished. I actually ended up getting my hair done here for my birthday this year! 


And, of course, the memes were fire: 






That pretty much summed it June for me! It was a time. 

                                                                    love, 
                                                                            ktv

ps - Oh, someone wrote me a poem! For those of you that know, this is where my distrust of Conor B. from Katie's Bachelorette season came from, lol! Never trust a math teacher who is artistic! We never did get a chance to grab those drinks. 



Pandemic Posts - June 2020

 Well, hello again! 

Time for another one of these! I have almost caught up to the month that I am actually in and I am determined to do so! The goal was to do these month by month, but as you can see, that didn't quite happen lol!

Anywho, June, like many of the previous months, was filled with joy and mourning. I realized that this was the first time in my life that I was able to sit and reflect about all the black life that was lost at the hands of the police. Usually, I would hear the news at work and just have to continue on with my day. It felt sacred to actually be able to sit and mourn in the moment, instead of having to push it to the back of my mind and continue to smile and go about my day.

Playlist Fridays!

 Hello all! 

It's been a helluva week over this way. Students are moving back in and all the other schools have started which is causing major traffic jams both coming and going to work. Add to that all the anxiety over all the things, and the fact that I have discovered that I really hate sitting in traffic, and just literally everything else that is happening in the world, has made me a bit of a mess over here. 

But, I have recently discovered that Tidal makes a Daily download playlist for me, so I am starting playlist Fridays! When I can remember to do them, of course lol

So without further ado, here are the songs that got me through this week!

1. ghost town (voice memo) - Chloe George

2. Romeo - Jungle, Bas

3. Astronaut in the Ocean - Masked Wolf

4. Sweet Dream - Alessia Cara

5. I Like Dat - T-Pain, Kehlani

6. Stay High - Childish Gambino Version, Britany Howard

7. Killer (Remix) - Eminem, Jack Harlow, Cordae

8. Magic In Hamptons - Social House, Lil Yachty

9. The Good - Cynthia Erivo

10. Walk With Me - GoldFord

11. Wildfire - Cautious Clay

12. Bruh - Lil Dicky

13. Catching Feelings (feat. Phony Ppl) - Drax Project, SIX60

And I made a YouTube playlist for you: https://youtu.be/tOY6QyIdWE4

Happy Friday good people!
